Raiders look to tie team record for longest win streak

The Prince Albert Raiders are inching closer to the record books.

The Raiders notched their 14^th straight victory Tuesday night by beating the Lethbridge Hurricanes 5-1. The victory puts them one win shy of tying a team record for longest winning streak, when they won 15 straight 32 years ago.

In the 1985-86 season the Raiders won 15 straight games and finished second overall in the WHL standings with 52 wins, 17 losses and 3 ties.

The longest winning streak in a single WHL regular season is 22 games, set by the Estevan Bruins in 1967. 

The Raiders are the number one team in the Canadian Hockey League this season with a record of 21-1.

The team’s next game is Friday night in Medicine Hat.
